I believe it was an illegal war as it was not supported or authorised by the UN in any form, resolution or otherwise. The UN has no peacekeeping forces in Iraq. At least in Britain the war was fought without the support of the majority of people, and in fact Blair led us into Iraq on his own little misguided crusade to impress George Bush. I don't know the actual legal definitions when it comes to the act of actually declaring war, but I believe that it was an illegal action, whether Congress says it was or not. |
